how to get more neg camber in front?
Could well be.
I avoided posting the ISC Delrin Bushings on the basis that I have no personal experience at all with Delrin suspension parts, and have heard anecdotally that they can be needlessly harsh on daily-driver cars. Didn't realize at the time that this was, in fact, because racecar.
Based on that, I tend to agree. The ISC delrin bushings are available in the US, and may very well be more reliable in a race application.
What are your thoughts on ISC's recommendation that their bushings be placed in the upper, rather than the lower front arm?

Craig, Emilio mentioned in another thread 949 will be releasing offset bushings in the near future. Potentially up to -4 on stock control arms.
Edit: although the ISC bushings aren't terribly expensive, and they're available now.

I had -4.5* in the front of my car without any aftermarket arms or bushings.
I think extending the LCA is the best option available outside of simple bushings, but you might have to source inner tie rods or make your own spherical outer tie rods.

The wheel hits the A-arm at full lock one way, but not the other. This is because my steering rack isn't centered properly (I took it apart once and must have put it back a spline or two offset) and I've been too lazy to fix it. Realistically, it's not an issue because the 6ULs have Hoosier A6s on them, I basically only use full lock while parallel parking, and there's not much call for that at an autox.

And yes, 5mm spacers should fix it.
-3.5 front camber works nicely with A6s on my car.
One other minor issue with them is that the FM silicone compressor-to-intercooler hose wants to occupy the same space as the washers on the now-offset UCA pivot point. Left alone, the washer will rub a hole in the silicone, but this is fixed with a couple of zip ties.
